How to download Reels on Android

Android makes it easier than iPhone: the video goes straight to your gallery. Paste a Reel link below and the file is on your phone in a few seconds.

Download the video

  1. In Instagram open the Reel, tap the paper plane icon and “Copy link”.
  2. Open tunzy.app in Chrome (or another browser), paste the link and press “Find the song”.
  3. Under the result tap “Video 1080p” or “Video, standard”.
  4. When the download finishes, an “Open” button appears at the bottom and a notification shows in the shade.
Example Tunzy search result: song found, with a YouTube music video, Apple Music and Spotify links, and buttons to download 1080p video, MP3 and M4A
This is what a result looks like: title, artist, music video, streaming links and download buttons.

Where to find the downloaded Reel

  • Gallery or Google Photos: the video appears in the Download album. The gallery sometimes needs a minute to notice it.
  • Files: in your file manager (Files by Google, My Files on Samsung, File Manager on Xiaomi) open the Download folder.
  • Chrome: three-dot menu → Downloads lists everything you’ve downloaded.

Save the audio and set it as a ringtone

The “Audio (MP3)” button saves the file to the same Download folder. To use it as a ringtone, open Settings → Sound → Phone ringtone and pick the file from your phone storage. On some phones it’s easier to open the MP3 in Files, tap the three dots and choose “Set as ringtone”.

If something doesn’t work

  • Don’t open the site inside Instagram’s or Telegram’s built-in browser: tap the three dots and choose “Open in Chrome”.
  • If the download fails, check free storage and try “Video, standard”, which is a smaller file.
  • If an older phone won’t play the 1080p video, choose “Video, standard” too: every device supports its format.
